Pres I t doesn t take much work to find out what s happening in San Diego s Little Italy. Entertainment, food, shopping and more await for all to enjoy, everyday, in this hip and historic Downtown neighborhood. Signage for major events can be found in shop windows and chatter among friends can be heard as the area piazzas lend themselves to a full social calendar for even the newest Little Italy resident. Yet, there is always more to explore. Every July, the Little Italy Association (LIA) hosts the annual State of the Neighborhood Dinner Reception, where the past, present and future status of Little Italy is presented, just after elected officials share their latest news. This is a great opportunity for residents to gather and get to know their favorite community, even better. This year, the dinner will be held on Wed., July 25 at 6:30 p.m., on the rooftop of Nelson Photo Supplies. Tickets are limited to 325 attendees at a cost of $25 each, and include a traditional Italian meal and a glass of wine. For those who want a daily update on the community, LIA runs an active Facebook page, under Little Italy Association of San Diego and can also be found on Twitter, @LittleItalySD. Followers get a variety of information, including events, parking options, new businesses, neighborhood announcements, and more.
